Rubber Band Rifle

[Jakal444]

Well this isnt a spudgun, it shoots rubberbands one at a time very accurately and surprisingly far (great for indoor use) plus it looks and feels realistic. Its used for small wars and target practice. Its quick to load and when the stock comes off it looks like shotgun.
I just thought someone may be interested.

Thats cool, what did you make it out off?

bamboo it looks like

[Jakal444]

Mostly one long piece of pvc pipe and 1 pvc coupler.
The trigger is a bent metal strip from an old windscreen wiper. The stock is 3 different lengths of tube taped on top of each other. The trigger guard is a strip cut lengthwise from another piece of pipe and bent.
And I used a hairdryer and my hands to create the bent parts of the grip and stock.

All in all pretty cheaply built from bits i had laying around.

Its a lot of fun though

Now you need a pair of pistols to match!

[Jakal444]

Yeah how about revolver style to match the western theme?

Very nice. Keep up the good work!

[Jakal444]

Thanks, I appreciate it.

Sounds like a good plan.

Sorry but doesn't meet the definitions of a "rifle"

But it does look interesting.

Try adding a trigger w/ a spinning magazine

o0o0o0o0o0o....That would be cool

Or something along the lines of "Machine Gun" as far as the clip for decoration....Like this:

I think he meant a multishot rifle that uses an escapement mechanism and a gear. I used to build them when I was younger but they were less powerful and more prone to rubberbands getting tangled on the front.

[STHORNE]

I know...I was just saying for looks the magazine reel would look cool.

[Jakal444]

Yeah if your into the Tommy gun look

[STHORNE]

Yeah if your into the Tommy gun look

Gives it kind of a "mafia" vibe, which apparently I seem to like.
